of tourists every year, serenading
sun kissed smiles
work just as well...

You saying there is some meaning to it all, even if it is only pain?
No.one can know that. There quite possibly could be none.

What are you psychic? You cannot tell if I was upset. Only I can know that.
I can see I haven\'t paid enough attention....I\'m going to audit your work and find out if it holds anything for me..........😆

so well written, dear Poet
thanks for sharing
(so true! faith as zealotry
an endless
cyclical tale of humanity
where human costs
are calculated
as delusional afterlife accounts
funny,
they murder each other, preaching
love for their deity
a father to all, apparently
yet here they are, killing
their deity\'s children
crazy,
what a warping of logic
imagine if some stranger
went n killed their own
flesh n blood children
and telling them, it\'s a demonstration
of love;
and those bystanders, declaim
involvement
that\'s not my faith, they protest
yet, back they go every sunday
funding their conglomerate
religion\'s
ammunition, fund raisers..)
and no atheism\'s nihilistic, nothingness
is not an answer, in my over opinionated
opinion
merely a reactionary, position
as impotent opossition

I enjoy your free flow of thought, heading in different directions, exploring every option, encapsulating whole philosophies in a hint or a nod or a question. Intelligent beasts we are... we climbed and climbed and... wait, here we are back on the ground.

(another poignant write, dear Poet
forgive me for posting some quotes
from James Baldwin below
just, to give a sense of how long
such statistic realities have been curating/decimating
the lives of our young brothers
used as scaffolding, stepping stones
to paint that mirage castle
they name, \'the American dream\'...)
\'Other people cannot see what I see whenever I look into your father\'s face, for behind your father\'s face as it is today are all those other faces which were his.\'
\'I know what the world has done to my brother and how narrowly he has survived it\'
taken from a later by James Baldwin to his nephew

Happy New Year brother
(Fear is such a corrosive, ancestral trait
imagine
being 6ft 6, and being scared
of someone down the street
whose a foot shorter
because their skin\'s tint, differs
slightly from your tanned arms
fearing
deep - where it counts
the struggles that inherited deep melanin, overcome
as a people, as a community
makes them six feet larger, in scale
to your worthless, warped sense
of belligerently ignorant, self
quick to wage wars
slow to heed words
like their forefathers, they\'ll die
on that white hooded cross
simply, because its scary to think
that whitewashed, lore
they were indoctrinated in, as a child
is as fake as their father christmas
spineless, lies...)
still, in MLK and Mandela\'s vision
we entrust our dreams
aside our fair skinned, yet empathetically aligned brethren
\'oneness\', is humanity\'s only choice

A human explosion
L. B. Mek said:
\'where there was once a collective now stands a people made feeble, others stand ready to bleed you, not feed you, they stay close in an attempt to read you,\'
astute commentary, dear Poet
a great read!
(but more like \'implosion\'
since all we do is hurt ourselves
by taking down those in reach;
see,
it would make sense of all we did
was retaliate, \'an eye for an eye\'
if you like
but often, all we\'re doing
is exporting our suffering
and poisoning others to suffer
in place of those that hurt us
then, feel sorry for ourselves
and claim that\'s it\'s not our fault
we\'re so volatile, choosing
to only see
all that\'s done to us and ignoring
all we do to those by our side
but we\'re just fallible humans, right
slaves to a callous fate
originating from those inherited circumstances
right?
best not mention, all those other\'s
that got out, evolved
done it right and chose the very same path
we refused to even entertain, once...)
